PCR, or Polymerase Chain Reaction, is a revolutionary molecular biology technique that allows for the rapid amplification of specific DNA sequences. It is an essential tool in various fields, ...

First developed in 1992, immuno-PCR combines an ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) with PCR (polymerase chain reaction) to offer a significant increase in sensitivity compared with traditional ...

Real-time PCR or quantitative PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) is an advancement of the standard PCR technique, which enables continuous monitoring of the reaction and collection of data in real time.

Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) has been the star molecular diagnostic and forensic technique. The COVID-19 pandemic has taken RT-PCR, a variant of PCR technology secluded in molecular biology ...

Engineers have developed a new method for duplicating DNA that makes devices small enough to hold in your hand that are capable of identifying infectious agents before symptoms appear. Imagine a "DNA ...

PCR processes are the diagnostic gold standard when it comes to identifying coronavirus infections. Unlike rapid antigen tests, they function even in the case of a low viral load and detect the ...

Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) has been the gold standard for diagnosis during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the PCR portion of the test requires bulky, expensive machines ...
